PHP 4.0 Bug #5957: Unexpected network read error when _not_ using output buffering

From: juhl@eisenstein.dk Operating system: Slackware Linux 7.0 PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (03/08/2000) PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Unexpected network read error when _not_ using output buffering I'm runing PHP4.0.2-dev (snapshot php4-200008030345), and scripts I run that have a form that posts data to itself and then output that data, fails to produce any output at all when I hit the submit button in aproximately 3 out of 5 cases. This problem disappears completely if I enable output buffering in php.ini - When I use Lynx to access the scripts, I get the error "Unexpected network read error" right after hitting submit. These scripts worked perfectly with PHP 4.0.0 The scripts I've tested with are fairly complex, so I'm not quite sure what parts of them fail, but I can investigate this further if wanted. PHP (both 4.0.0 and this devel. version) was configured like this: './configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd --enable-calendar --enable-trans-sid --enable-versioning --enable-track-vars --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir --with-tiff-dir --with-png-dir --with-ttf --with-zlib-dir --enable-memory-limit=yes --with-openssl --disable-debug I'm running Apache 1.3.12 on Slackware Linux 7.0 Best regards, Jesper Juhl juhl@eisenstein.dk
